today's topic: Kids are back in school
and starting to pass around colds and
coughs. There are excellent ways to
treat these with holistic care at home.
We can explore all of these methods for
home care and professional holistic care
based on your children's needs.
Prevention is also a key to maintaining
a strong immune system and we can
discuss supplements and dietary changes
that keep kids healthy. |

State of the art emergency medicine docs
say that sore throats should no longer
be cultured, because the dangers of
antibiotics outweigh the dangers of
strep throat. |
|
12:08:44 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Your 3 month old is immune to everything
that you are. Your antibodies are still
in her bloodstream. And of course
breastfeeding is also protective. |

is there anything in addition to
breastfeeding I should be doing? |
|
12:09:54 |
RandallNeustaedter |
I think that all children should be
taking an omega-3 supplement after they
are weaned, and breastfeeding mothers
should take them. |
|
12:10:23 |

I also like bovine colostrum for kids
who get colds to boost immunity. |

No flaxseed is not an appropriate
supplement. |
|
12:11:43 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Flax is not adequately converted to DHA. |
|
12:12:00 |
RandallNeustaedter |
You need to take a fish oil or algae
based DHA supplement. |

Fish oil is the appropriate omega 3

Good afternoon all. My 3 yo daughter is
under homeopathic treatment for chronic
colds (pulsatilla 200). Can I give her
echinacea to boost her immune system, or
should I let the constitutional
treatment stand alone? |
|
12:18:00 |
RandallNeustaedter |
I say all this because there is so much
fever phobia among parents and doctos. |
|
12:18:56 |

I give herbs with homeopathic medicines
all the time. Sambucol, echinacea, and

interfere with remedies. |

the cough and what should I do about his
liver from the T? |

To treat coughs you may want to use a
home prescribing book. There are
suggestions for treating acute illness
at home in my book, Child Health Guide,
and in several other good home
prescribers by Dana Ullman, Judyth
Reichenberg-Ullman, and Miranda Castro. |

Other than Omega3 fatty acids, and

supps for my baby who is still
exclusively breastfed? at what age
should I start supps and which ones? |
|
12:38:17 |
RandallNeustaedter |
A buffered C (for example calcium
ascorbate) is great in powder or open
capsules and mix with applesauce or
juice. |
|
12:38:37 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Sodium ascorbate is usually too salty
tasting for kids. |
|
12:39:20 |
SadieLake |
whats a good age to start? |
|
12:39:39 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Give cod liver oil on a spoon or with a
dropper. Powdered supplements can be
mixed with breastmilk. |
|
12:40:16 |
SadieLake |
am I going to get her system off balance
giving just C? |
|
12:40:21 |
RandallNeustaedter |
A solely breastfeeding mother can take
fish oil herself and boost the
breastmilk content of omega 3 fats to
adequate levels. |
|
12:40:41 |
RandallNeustaedter |
when babies start nursing less, then
start them on cod liver oil |

they usually take that without a problem |

Milk is certainly not a dietary
necessity. |
|
12:44:50 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Many people react to milk with allergies
or sensitivities or difficulty digesting
it or lactose or it just causes mucus |
|
12:45:00 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Some people seem to do fine. |

12:45:16 |
RandallNeustaedter |
I don't recommend milk for anyone under
18-24 months. |

12:45:33 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Any family history of dairy problems is
also a sign for caution. |

never drink milk. |

There are much better ways of building a
strong immune system, rather than basing
our decisions on fear. |

It discusses all of the philosophy and
the specific diseases. |
|
12:52:08 |
Webmama_Tina |
oh good...does it talk about what the
risks of the actual diseases are? |
|
12:52:11 |
Webmama_Tina |
that's what i'd like to know |
|
12:52:13 |

My previous pediatrician seemed quite
reasonable, but she really wanted to
vaccinate against whooping cough. Is
that particularly dangerous. |
|

You may also want to listen to our radio
shows about vaccines at the
www.hpakids.org website. |

In your experience, is it helpful to
give a preventative dose of the
homeopathic remedy influenzinum 1x per
week during the flu season? |

Oh every doctor has their own concerns
about some disease or other based on
their own personal beliefs and
experience. |
|
12:53:29 |
RandallNeustaedter |
You need to do your own research. |

Angi You can use influenzinum in several
doses (3 or 4) during the flu season.
Usually Dec-Feb or March. |
|
12:54:56 |
Angi |
Okay. |

I don't have any objection to that, and
there is some evidence that it works. |

I have wheat and dairy allergies. At
what age should I try introducing foods
like wheat crackers, bread or cheese to
my daughter (now 10 mo)? She loves
yogurt and tolerates it well. |
|
12:56:25 |
RandallNeustaedter |
ctak I do not recommend that any baby
get grains prior to 12 months. I would
wait longer with her for wheat. Maybe 18
mos. And cheese may be fine at 12 mos. |

Whats your opinion of eating according
to your blood type? and should I keep it
in mind when introducing food to my
baby? about milk... what about raw? Is
raw milk even considered the same? |

thanks |

12:57:24 |
RandallNeustaedter |
SadieLake I don't agree with the blood
type. I think the metabolic typing is
more accurate. |
|
12:57:38 |
SadieLake |
mercola style? |
|
12:57:45 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Raw milk often avoids all the problems
of pasteurized. |

Avoid homogenized milk if you can. |
|
12:58:09 |
RandallNeustaedter |
The fat is really indigestible and
causes problems. |

PrimaG, let's go w/ you |
|
13:00:37 |
PrimaG |
I saw a recipe on your website and
frankly find it daunting to have to
measure things out especially if I'm the
one who is sick! Do we really need to
buy a scale to best treat ourselves? How
do we know where best to buy herbs? I
have moved recently and |
|
13:00:43 |
jaz_mama |
I am not giving iron enriched grains to
my 9 month old yet. what is a good
source of iron for him? Also is at one
year a good time to introduce raw milk? |
|
13:00:44 |
PrimaG |
have no idea where to go. |
|
13:00:51 |
Webmama_Tina |
ah sorry jazmama |
|
13:01:03 |
Webmama_Tina |
thought you got called away |
|
13:01:32 |
RandallNeustaedter |
PrimaG ARe you talking about a formula
recipe or what? |
|
13:01:50 |
PrimaG |
yes, sorry I can't remember what it was
for, maybe flu? |
|
13:02:01 |
PrimaG |
oh, not formula |
|
13:02:18 |
RandallNeustaedter |
I do not give measurements that require
anything but a spoon. |
|
13:02:44 |
PrimaG |
maybe I veered off to another site,
sorry. |
|
13:03:20 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Iron is not necessary for a 9 month old
unless they have low hemoglobin. I check
babies at 9 months. |
|
13:03:36 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Dark green veges are the best source of
iron. |
|
13:03:52 |
RandallNeustaedter |
You can make them in soup and blend it. |
|
13:03:53 |
jaz_mama |
fresh pureed veggies |

Please forgive me if this has already
been covered but what do you recommend
giving my littles (3 and 5.5) to keep
them as healthy as possible during
cold/flu season (remedy/supplements)
other than just vit C? Or is that
enough, along with handwashing? |
|
13:05:04 |
Webmama_Tina |
last question for today :) |
|
13:05:05 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Make thick soups with carrots and
veggies. |
